This is it! Perfectly located in vibrant East Mt. Airy, just a short distance to Germantown Avenue and districted to Henry H. Houston School, you’ll start falling in love as you take in the charming street with mature trees and stone-fronted homes. Walk through the arched stone entry to the private front patio and imagine sitting with your morning coffee or relaxing at the end of the day. As you enter the front door, the vestibule offers a great place to take in the main level, flooded with natural light. This home has been thoughtfully and extensively renovated to make it comfortable for today’s lifestyle and needs, while honoring the history and character of the original architecture. The step-down living room showcases high ceilings, fireplace, decorative moldings and alcove. Original hardwood floors with inlay have been refinished throughout the house, and they are stunning. The dining room and kitchen have been transformed to create an open and warm space with exposed ceilings and brick work. You’ll appreciate the extensive cabinetry, granite counters, Viking stainless steel appliances, functional island and large pantry. A breakfast nook was created, and the hard work of opening the exterior wall to install sliding doors is finished; it’s ready for you to build the deck of your dreams. A powder room with historically-appropriate finishes was added to the main floor. As you head upstairs, admire the vintage light fixtures at the bottom and top of the staircase. You’ll also find high-end lighting and fans throughout the rest of the home, as well as hand-forged iron curtain rods. The renovations continue on the second level with refinished hardwood floors with inlay in the hallway and each bedroom. The primary bedroom is a generous size with two deep closets and alcove, and the ensuite bathroom with extra-deep soaking slipper tub will be your ideal retreat. This and the hall bathroom feature historically-appropriate finishes, radiant heat flooring and wall towel-warmers; the hall bath has an oversized shower with double shower heads. Two additional bedrooms are spacious and offer deep closets; ceiling fans are in all bedrooms. Head to the lower level for a renovated powder room and finished area, ready for a home office, exercise room or second gathering space. You’ll enjoy inside access to the garage and a convenient area for laundry with a vintage restored double-sink. No need to worry about the major systems - central air was installed, the electric and plumbing systems were updated, a tankless water heater was installed, as well as a whole-house water purification system, and the flat roof was recoated.
